It's old cold war news with a flashy new headline. My first vote's on someone simply dredging it up for use in an upcoming attempt at a peace rally. Since we know we have plans for these things anyway, you know no one would doubt the info. My second vote goes for Daschle since he was recently bopping around claiming he wasn't told anything. He can now look like he has an alibi- "I see nothing! How could I release it if I didn't know?" And my third votes on the administration to scare the fewmets out of someone in the hopes they will settle for a more or less peaceful solution. Of course the last is risky... the French will be very displeased and the UK Guardian will implode. ; )

This is simply preparation for W to be called a "warmonger" who is a crazy cowboy with his finger on the button.

It was used against Goldwater and Reagan.

Of course THEN, our nation had not been attacked!

Now that we have been attacked - surely most Americans understand that our military must be prepared for every eventuality.

But the old peacenik propagandists will take this and run with it and attempt to scare everyone to death that W is about to push the button.

Clinton unilaterally opened our nation up to a nuclear strike. What struck was not nuclear but it was a devastating blow just was well.

We were struck DIRECTLY because of Clinton's "disarming" of our nation for those eight long years - and it is a very good thing that nations know we can and will defend ourselves with whatever is necessary to destroy any potential striker!

But that will not stop the peaceniks from turning out by the thousands now with this news.

Here we go again.
